Healing Your Body

The majority of the population in the United States suffers from at least one, if not several, of these conditions, and chronic inflammation is at the root of them all. Though its symptoms often seem vague and nonspecific, this type of inflammation is like a small fire burning inside the body that, over time, gets stoked and encouraged by other irritants, taking a gradual toll on the body by damaging cells, overworking the immune system, and creating imbalances that can lead to long-term health issues. In fact, low levels of ongoing inflammation have been blamed for increasing rates of heart disease, diabetes, cancer, autoimmune diseases, arthritis, depression, and Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases.

Chronic inflammation is difficult to understand and difficult to recognize because it has no overt symptoms—making it even harder to diagnose and treat. And there’s still a lot we don’t know about it. But one thing that research does confirm is that you can prevent future diseases—as well as heal or improve most existing conditions—through food choices.

Anti-inflammatory eating involves only a few small changes, and Meals That Heal will show you how delicious—not to mention easy and quick—this new healthy approach can be!

Sample Recipe: Fuss-Free Pulled Pork Tacos

1. Cut the pork into 12 pieces similar in size. Rub the pork with the taco seasoning and sprinkle with the salt.

2. Place the oil in a multicooker and preheat to saute. Add the pork and cook, stirring frequently, for 2 to 3 minutes or until the meat is beginning to brown on the outside. Add the salsa. Cook and lock the lid on the multicooker, and pressure-cook for 25 to 30 minutes.

3. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350F. Stack the tortillas, wrap them in aluminum foil, and bake them until warm, about 15 minutes.

4. Once the multicooker is done, release the steam and open the multicooker as directed by the manufacturer. Let cool slightly; place the pork on a cutting board or plate and shred with two forks. Place approximately 1 ½ ounces of the pork down the center of each tortilla; sprinkle with the cilantro and serve with the lime wedges and additional salsa. Drizzle with the cooking juices, if desired.

Slow Cooker Option

Follow the directions above, omitting the oil and skipping sauteing. Place the pork in a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker and add the salsa. Cover and cook until the meat is tender and pulls apart easily, 4 to 5 hours on high or 7 to 8 hours on low.

Since this recipe usually makes more than I need, I freeze half to pull out and use a few weeks down the road. Also, the pulled pork isn’t just for tacos—it’s great on salads and baked sweet potatoes, as well as by itself!

Inflammation and Disease

Increasingly, we are becoming aware that inflammation underlies many of the world’s most common diseases, even the process of aging. Clearly, inflammation is associated with such obvious inflammatory conditions as rheumatoid arthritis, but did you know that inflammation is a risk factor for developing heart disease and cancer, our most common killers?

Given this, shouldn’t we all be trying to do something to reduce inflammation? One thing we all can do is to eat healthier foods—foods that help combat inflammation.

Let this recipe book serve as your guide to preventing or combating inflammation and improving your health through diet. The calorie-controlled recipes you will find in each chapter will not only help fight inflammation, but they will also help you control excess body weight—a major risk factor for inflammation.

Boost Omega-3s

Adding more unsaturated fats and omega-3 fatty acids to your diet, and reducing saturated and trans fats, is important to developing a healthier way of eating. Unsaturated fats such as flaxseed and canola oil contain important antioxidants to protect your body from oxidative stress and help prevent the development of cancer cells. An adequate source of unsaturated fats assists your body in reducing inflammation and creating more flexible cell membranes, which is important in the prevention of heart disease. Omega-3s have the additional benefit of being a natural blood thinner, which protects against stroke.

Add-In Antioxidants

Antioxidants are chemicals that prevent or interrupt certain types of chemical reactions in the body. Thousands, even millions, of chemical reactions are happening in your body all the time. Some of these reactions involve the transfer of electrons from one molecule to another, creating unstable molecules, called free radicals, that are damaging to the body. Free radicals can damage or destroy cells, proteins, and even our basic genetic material, DNA. Antioxidants have the ability to stabilize free radicals, preventing the damage they cause.

Sample Recipe: Roasted Salmon and Asparagus

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F.

2. Toss the asparagus with the olive oil and ½ teaspoon salt. Spread in a single layer in the bottom of a roasting pan.

3. Season the salmon with the pepper and remaining ½ teaspoon salt. Place skin-side down on top of the asparagus.

4. Sprinkle the salmon and asparagus with the lemon zest and place the lemon slices over the fish.

5. Roast in the preheated oven 12 to 15 minutes, until the flesh is opaque.

Why Salmon?

Salmon and other fatty fish (including herring, mackerel, and tuna) are excellent sources of omega-3 fatty acids, which can help boost your body’s inflammation-fighting ability. Salmon is deliciously accented with greens and citrus fruits, so it’s easy to make an anti-inflammatory meal with this superstar ingredient.
